At Hope’s Side Quest, we believe in messy middles, holy misfits, and the fierce grace of just showing up. Life isn’t a straight path—it’s a series of quests, detours, dragons, and unexpected victories. Whether you're wrestling burnout, navigating grief, or trying to reconnect with your family (or yourself), this is your sign: you don't have to do it alone.

You might know me as Wonder Widow from my early blogging days, or from Hope Quest LLC. I’m April Roller-Morris—certified life coach, travel planner, full-time momma, faith-fueled nerd, and proud co-founder of Cos4Hope, a nonprofit focused on mental wellness and suicide prevention through community education, pop culture, and comic cons!

Through Hope’s Side Quest, I help individuals and families find Hope, healing, and a bit of fun in the chaos—whether through coaching conversations, immersive travel adventures, or snack-filled family devotionals in the back of a minivan.

Whatever your story looks like right now—whether you’re the Hero, the Anti-Hero, or even the Villain in your own arc—I’m here to help you (and maybe your crew) figure it out. There’s no perfect path. Just a real one, full of grace, grit, and the next step forward.
